I haven't seen anything in Wolff's tape that suggests that he's anywhere near poor in the pass game. Birdman, I have no idea what you're talking about. Wolff is about as balanced a safety there is in this class. H8ers gonna h8._________________Respect is not given, it is earned. --Brian Dawkins

I haven't seen anything in Wolff's tape that suggests that he's anywhere near poor in the pass game. Birdman, I have no idea what you're talking about. Wolff is about as balanced a safety there is in this class. H8ers gonna h8.

Wolff has a strong first step downhill, in the run game. He doesn't react well laterally. He struggles to change direction in space. Lacks a second gear to stay with faster TE's and Receivers. If Wollf was as balanced a safety as you claim from watching his "tape", he would have went much higher in the daft. This is the reason he dropped, he does have holes in his game as does every player coming out this year. It's perfectly fine to recognize our players short comings. To see how they improve and progress in their career.
Just because the Eagles drafted a player doesn't mean he is going to the HoF or be "great" in his first year.
Wolff struggled against the pass in college. What would lead you to believe he won't struggle against the best players in the world in his rookie year?_________________

Same reason RGIII threw less picks his first year in the NFL than he did his last year in college......Improvement._________________

And that's your problem. You think that is the norm. Sorry to break it to you, it's not. It's the exception._________________

And that's your problem. You think absolutely no player can improve and you also have trouble understanding context, because everything you're saying is off.

You asked what would make us think Wolff could get better against the pass in the NFL.....and I said improvement. How do you not understand the meaning of my post?

Literally the biggest pessimist out there. You're like Nancy the Negative Troll_________________

I don't think so. He will compete with Phillips. If Davis lets him play more of a centerfielder role instead of coming up in the box all the time he could still prove to be a solid safety.

I would hope they would do that. But I think I remember Kelly saying that they won't have traditional FS/SS roles but rather guys who can do both equally well so that they can disguise the coverages better._________________

The only way Wolff has a small chance to start at SS is if Chung gets hurt.

Chung has never finished an entire season so far in his career... I hate to say it, but if Wolff is the back up, there is a pretty good chance he might get some starts.

He won't be the starter going into the season, though.

Why do you think Wolff can't beat out Chung in TC?

What makes you think Chung is some sure thing? He has talent, sure, but dude is as inconsistent as they come and has been declining the past couple years rather than the contrary. I like Chung and think he could be good, but I think Wolff is gonna be better, and will even be better as a rookie.

Better tackler than Chung and is very likely going to be better than him in coverage already as well._________________
